A cross-chain bridge that relies on cryptographic proofs rather than trusted intermediaries to verify transactions.
Definition
A cross-chain bridge that relies on cryptographic proofs rather than trusted intermediaries to verify transactions. Light client bridges and ZK bridges fall into this category. They're more secure than trusted bridges but typically slower and more expensive. Most bridge hacks have targeted trusted bridge designs.
